Take it in stride, no need to blow an o-ring eh (as I'm under the impression that you were copping an attitude Bart, the man, if you weren't sorry but comes off like that yanno?)

if you search and type in "auto to manual" i got 69 results in just the thread titles, but if you only use mt and at, it wont search since they are too short.
